Don't ever expect too much from a B16a(just my opinion) but yeah that's a pretty decent motor for your first car.

 

Im thinking that someone is going to put a link to the search feature as a reply.

Then someones gonna give you a link to the stick of "what swaps should i do to my civic"

but im gonna straight up call you retarded because this happens every week and every time someone like you takes up the forum space getting flamed cause you were too stupid to search.

gotya on this one

 

i wasn't wanting what swaps to do in a hatch..i was wanting to know personally from people who have a b16 swap in a hatch if like the outcome of the swap..not what to swap in it...

 

b16a is a good building ground for a turbo. You might want to re-think the itr tranny though if your going fi, it's too short of a gear ratio meaning you'll have traction problems and turbo lag (depending on turbo size) however this is all debatable. If your going n/a your good to go.

 

is the b16b a better swap

 

b16b has more hp because of higher compression and superior cams and valve train but imo if your going n/a it still lacks the torque you'll get out of a b18b/c/c5. I also feel that it has too high of a comp. rato to go with FI.
